john e owens in his fight for honest jelections was yesterday learned to have been submitted to three circuit court judges all of whom refused to have any thing to do with tha proceedings before 1 1 the case went to judge martin m gridley who is now hearing argument in the su perior court each of the judges to whom the appli cation was submitted declined to consider it declaring it to be absolutely without i merit in law flatly charging that the suit is nothing i but a thiuly teiled plot by political plun ! derers without party or principle to strike a death blow to the election reforms insti tuted by judge owens attorney isaac t i greenacre attacked the petition the ulter 1 ior motites of those who inspired the suit and the jurisdiction of judge grid ; ley is it not a fact that the ulterior mo tive behind this action is to invalidate the 1 contract to install voting machines at torney greenacre demanded of frank ayers attorney for the plaintiffs political purpose charged attorney ayer's denial of the hidden pur pose of the suit brought a contemptuous shrug from mr greenaere who opened his argument with the charge that the ultimate object of the suit in addition to preventing the installation of voting machines is to bring about the installation of two sets of election commissioners at cross purposes agents and attorneys of rival voting ma chine companies thronged the courtroom and it was rumored that they were giving their advice and aid to the interests beliind the eertiorari action in the expectation that if bach ami hudson are ordered reiu ! stated the contract with the empire voting machine company will be rendered void and the 1,000,000 prize will fall to thÂ«m in this optimistic view of the situation they have overlooked the

of hudson with the â€¢ cutnmings foundry deals while he was a member of the board the report of the ' special grand jury which investigated the healy-wayman contest the testimony of shelby m singleton of the citizens asso ciation and the voluminous records of tes timony showing the horrible conditions which flourished under the old regime are in evidence as the basis upon which county judge owens ousted bach and hudson ' said mr greenacre > greenacre understands petition several times during his argument mr greenacre was interrupted by judge grid ' ley who intimated that mr greenacre ' might not have fully grasped tie purpose 1 of the petition i understand it thoroughly mr green acre replied i the application for a writ of eertiorari is merely a pretext for other things and â€¢ the application should not be granted the issue of an order by this court would probably result in a clash between j this court and judge owens whose pro t ceeding in this case as county judge are i not subject to review endless litigation , and strife would be the inevitable result judge gridley ruled that in his opinion , the superior court has jurisdiction over t the county court in some cases and that , it remains to be seen if this case is one that can be reviewed by him attorney greenacre pointed out that a clash between the superior and county courts will be inevitable if the order re

price to a figure of 5 cents a thousand cubic feet less than the company now is charging jfl the decree fixing the temporary rate to go into effect next monday is based on a stalement in the company's petition for an injunction jbv which set forth that anything below 80 cents would be unreasonable and confiscatory it was a sweeping triumph for the city although corporation counsel sexton and his assistant maclay hoyne will continue the battle to bring the company completely to its knees it proved the conten tion on which the 70-cent ordinance was grounded and which the ex aminer haÃŸ maintained for many years â€” that the peoples gas light & coke company practically has been extorting money from 525,000 fl householders under the 85-cent rate the plea of the city's lawyers that the

much for gas and order the company to come down a nickel a thousand forthwith the absurd cry of politics raised by james f measlier general counsel and vice president of the company availed him nothing arguing on this point corporation counsel sexton said the courts can not go into the reasons that prompted the council to vote for the present rate except for the purpose of showing brib ery it does not matter whether an alderman voted for the ordi > nance because he did not like the color of jim meagherv hair or whether he believed the price was a fair one counsel for the city objected strenuously to the court's action in fixing the rate temporarily t 80 cents mr hoyne argued that the fih court was exceeding its power and contended strongly . for the city's v proposition for an impounding of all the money exacted by the com fl pany or allowed it in excess of the 70-cent rate set in the ordinance â– or inly it fl mr hoyne said that the city would take the stand that the court did not have any power to fix gas rates but merely to review thenn^b as fixed by the city council and send them back for fun her reguj_bj tion in the event that the court decided that the rates as fixes the council were unreasonable and unjust mr meagher expressed himself as wholly dissatisfied wi der of the court the decision of judge gibbon was unjust and unnpj said for the reason that any

order of judge john gibbons in the circuit court yeitef 3g day the price of gas in the city of Chicago was reduced to 80 pb cents pending the outcome of a suit by which the peoples ga ,Â§ 1 light & coke company seek sto knock out the ordinance setting â– j the rate at an average of a little mo re than 70 cents for the next five i years 1 the court took the company at its own word in limiting the price to a figure of 5 cents a thousand cubic feet less than the company now is charging jfl the decree fixing the temporary rate to go into effect next monday is based on a stalement in the company's petition for an injunction jbv which set forth that anything below 80 cents would be unreasonable and confiscatory it was a sweeping triumph for the city although corporation counsel sexton and his assistant maclay hoyne will continue the battle to bring the company completely to its knees it proved the conten tion on which the 70-cent ordinance was grounded and which the ex aminer haÃŸ maintained for many years â€” that the peoples gas light & coke company practically has been extorting money from 525,000 fl householders under the 85-cent rate the plea of the city's lawyers that the difference between the ordinance rate and the 85-cent rate be impounded by the court to be paid to the people or to the gas com pany according to the final decision in the injunction suit was not granted by judge gibbons decides 85 cents an overcharge neither did the court in any way pass upon the injunction matter it did not take him twenty-four hours however to decide that 85 eentÃŸ was too much for gas and order the company to come down a nickel a thousand forthwith the absurd cry of politics raised by james f measlier general counsel and vice president of the company availed him nothing arguing on this point corporation counsel sexton said the courts can not go into the reasons that prompted the council to vote for the present rate except for the purpose of showing brib ery it does not matter whether an alderman voted for the ordi > nance because he did not like the color of jim meagherv hair or whether he believed the price was a fair one counsel for the city objected strenuously to the court's action in fixing the rate temporarily t 80 cents mr hoyne argued that the fih court was exceeding its power and contended strongly . for the city's v proposition for an impounding of all the money exacted by the com fl pany or allowed it in excess of the 70-cent rate set in the ordinance â– or inly it fl mr hoyne said that the city would take the stand that the court did not have any power to fix gas rates but merely to review thenn^b as fixed by the city council and send them back for fun her reguj_bj tion in the event that the court decided that the rates as fixes the council were unreasonable and unjust mr meagher expressed himself as wholly dissatisfied wi der of the court the decision of judge gibbon was unjust and unnpj said for the reason that any
